When we think about summer, we often think about burgers and hot dogs and grilling with friends and family. But, I think we tend to forget about another wonderful treat that is really easy to prepare with friends and cooks well on a grill: kebabs! A kebab is like a burger, its a platform for …

The other night we ventured to the heart of Mexico and created a fabulous authentic mole sauce. However, we made too much. Now, if you have ever had a mole sauce before, you will likely agree that this is not a bad predicament to be in. So, the question becomes, “What do we do with …
